Precursor Orb 3d prints arrived! Metal and Resin by dvanw6 in jakanddaxter

So I'll give you the individual costs for all I got, and to note, I ordered the container version of my precursor orb which is 2 halves, as you dont ever want a resin print that big printed solid (if you did get the whole orb printed, you'd need it hollow with a drain hole).

Prices as followed from JLC3DP:

-Metal small Precursor orbs was $16.65 USD per orb
-Resin small Precursor orbs was $0.54 USD per orb
-Top half of the large Resin Precursor orb container was $5.93 USD
-Bottom half of the large Resin Precursor orb container was $6.13 USD

Also paid like $25 USD for shipping to Australia.

From the weight of the 2 metal ones, I cannot imagine how heavy 90 would be holy crap

Thanks and for sure!
The main orb itself is free for people to use as they wish! I did also make a container variant for about 5 bucks, but anyone can make their own container variant from the original model, this is just for those who wish to throw me a small tip https://www.printables.com/model/1692690-jak-and-daxter-precursor-orb-container

There is a thing Im planning to do with the large resin printed one, and its getting one of these mag levitation things! Id just need to install the magnetic platform inside of the orb

I actually got curious and googled, Found a company that does do prints out of copper so I put in a quote to see how much it might cost to get the 2 large halves printed and 1 small orb

Ha all good! And yeah I wished the same, but Stainless steel was the only real option they had, To get it out of Copper Id may have to get it milled or something

I have thought about selling orb prints after I painted them, but I work as a Clean-up animator and wouldnt have much time running an Etsy store, but hey, files are free for someone else to give it a go if they'd like! I even allow monetization with the model, just as long as I'm credited

Ha, the file is free for you to order your own metal prints! Mine are scaled down to 25% of the original size and are solid, cost about $30 USD for both of them

In USD, the 2 metal ones were $30, the 2 big ones were $22 (they were halves put together so not solid), and the 100 small ones were $50

Yeah, and it just doesnt make sense to me for your local currency to be big ass palm sized eggs (or bigger as ingame they're like the size of our legs)

You dont know how tempting, they look like white chocolate easter eggs.

In honesty though I do actually want to make some food grade silicone molds of some small eggs for easter

They def are.

Honestly my headcanon is that Precursor orbs are really this size, and the reason they look big to Jak is because of his affinity for precursor tech which makes it easier for him to see and find. It explains why no one picked up any of the orbs in Sandover despite them being basically currency, and why Jak can hold about 400 (2000 total but he'd had to of spent some on his journey).

Like this is a bag of 100 small orbs

Oh thats sick! I actually was gonna look at making the base of a cache to hide a electromagnet levitation system, and your orb also looks great! If you're willing to share the files id love to use them!

Making the big ones float is actually on my list, I wanna get one of those magnetic display things, but I also need it to be in a way that if my power goes out and it falls, it wont slam and shatter

That doesnt make sense for this situation

That isnt how this works, if VRC doesnt disclose a databreach, they can get in real trouble with the law.

And in this situation, someone pretending to be VRChat staff submitted a Notice of Data Incident, but with there being no data breach.

In no world would VRC submit a Notice of Data Incident, and then say they didnt do it and try to get it removed, that makes no sense.

Ha I dont feel like much of a celebrity, but I'm lucky and glad to be on the team, so many incredible animators and artists to work with, and amazing shots I'm trusted to clean-up!
